Samenvatting:
Do you overreact and know it — but can't stop? Do you shut down when people get close? Do you carry a low hum of dread that never fully lifts?
You are not broken. You are responding to something that happened to you.
Healing from Complex PTSD is a compassionate, evidence-based recovery guide for adults living with the effects of prolonged or repeated trauma — childhood abuse, neglect, domestic violence, or any situation where the threat was ongoing and escape wasn't possible.
Written by Dr. Sarah Cole, physician and trauma specialist, this book gives you a name for what you've been carrying, explains exactly what chronic trauma does to your brain and nervous system, and walks you through a structured three-phase recovery framework used by trauma clinicians worldwide.
Inside, you will discover:
- Why your nervous system is still in survival mode — and how to begin changing that
- The four trauma responses (fight, flight, freeze, and fawn) and which one drives your patterns
- What emotional flashbacks are and why they feel like the present, not the past
- How to rebuild safety, quiet the inner critic, and restore self-worth from the ground up
- Practical somatic tools to reconnect with your body — without reliving the trauma
- How to break cycles in relationships without losing the people you love
- A personalised recovery blueprint you keep long after the last page
This is not a 30-day fix. It is a real, structured, deeply human guide to recovery — written for the person who is exhausted from trying, who has half-convinced themselves that ease is not for them.
Recovery from Complex PTSD is possible. The research supports it. This book shows you the path.
Perfect for readers of The Body Keeps the Score, Complex PTSD: From Surviving to Thriving, and Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents.
